I was awoken early Thursday morning, much to my chagrin. Staring at my
alarm clock, I relized that it was indeed I who had decided to arise at
the unholy hour of 8:15 am. I prepared myself for the day, slowly, with
grapefruit juice and a Vitamin C supplement. After which I left the house
to partake in my exercises, which were most enlightening. Feeling
alright, I left the gym bearing 115 degrees and arived at All-Star Show
Productions, where I briefly met with Tony, who informed me that neither
Doug, or my Gemini Power Conditioner were in the building. This left me
feeling not so much angery, but dissapointed. However, I discussed Yamaha
at length with Tony, and decided to return to my home, and begin the
reglorifaction of my system. Sound System's for Worship in hand, and
determination in my heart, I began my quest to determine why my system was
not loud enough. I began the ancient art of trouble shooting, which is an
involved process of unplugging cables one by one. I had determined that
there was a problem with my tweeters, specifically, an impedance
problem. At this point I phoned Brian at Mother's Music, and after a
brief discussion, he concluded that I needed to bring the S115IV's in for
inspection. I returned to my rack to ponder this delema.
Much to my suprise, as I was staring at the system indicators, there was a
loud snap, and the smell of insulation, then all was silent, and
quite powerless. The snap, I discovered was from the surge suppressors
breaker. I reset this breaker, and was soon rewared with a 60hz hum,
which lasted for but 2 seconds before blowing the breaker. I decided that
the P4500 needed to accompany me on my venture to Mother's.

Brian worked hard, and after rewiring the S115IV's, and replacing the
P4500 courtesy of Yamaha's 3 year unconditional warranty, I was well on my
way to sound.

Friday, I picked up my system and re installed the components in the
living room. First, I tested the system with The Rolling Stones' "Love is
Strong." I was rewarded with much cripers highs, and much more rolling
lows. I was pleased. The Amps were function perfectly. At this
junction, I decided to see what it could
do.

I replaced The Rolling Stones with Bon Jovi's "It's my life." Setting the
crossover gains to the Fuckin Loud position, I squated before my rack, and
confidently pressed the play button.
